Open Staircases
Open riser staircases have become increasingly popular and offer a contemporary look to suit any modern interior. Canal makes sure that the open gap between every riser fits in with the necessary building regulations. To increase safety Canal can install steel bars to decrease the amount of open space to ensure safety for toddlers and pets.
Open tread staircases allow you to see beyond the staircase and increase the natural light flow through a property. One of the biggest benefits that open tread staircases offer is the increase of natural light flow creating an idea of a larger perception of space, opening up your home. The increase of natural light makes this style of staircases a popular choice with interior designers as it adds a modern look to a house.
The versatility of an open riser staircase design can work with almost any style of staircase such as helical, spiral and straight staircases and is ideal for both commercial and residential environments.
In addition, the choice of materials available to customise an open plan staircase creates endless design possibilities. The open riser staircases can be manufactured with bespoke handrails and balustrades to suit your needs.

“I chose Canal Engineering because of their ability to precision fabricate and install within a complex and awkward geometry. They were able to provide us with a finish that has a natural patina whilst also being hardwearing, develop mock ups to help us make the right choice of detail and complete the work within a reasonable budget.”
